Food Storage Tips
Wash foods before storing.
Divide and separate foods into smaller
pieces.
Place watery foods or foods with a lot of
moisture in front shelves (close to door
side). If they are placed close to the
cold air spout, they can be frozen.
Warm or hot foods should be cooled
down enough before storing to reduce
power
consumption and to enhance
refrigeration performance.
Be careful in storing tropical fruits such
as bananas, pineapples and tomatos,
as they can easily deteriorate in lower
temperatures.
Keep enough space between foods.
If too tight or too close, cold air
circulation is hindered, resulting in poor
refrigeration.
Never forget to cover or wrap foods to
prevent odours.

Before You Call for Service...
Please check the following troubleshooting tips before
you call for service!
Problem
It never gets cold inside.
Freezing & refrigerating is
not very good.
Checkup Point
Is the refrigerator unplugged?
Is the temperature set to [Low Mode]?
Is the refrigerator under direct sunlight or is a heat
appliance placed near it?
Is the space between the refrigerator back and the wall
too close?
Action
Plug in the refrigerator.
Set the temperature mode to Middle or High.
Move to a place where there is no direct sunlight, no
heat appliances around.
Keep sufcient space between the back of the
refrigerator and the wall.
Problem
Foods in the refrigerator get
frozen.
Checkup Point
Is temperature set to [High]?
Is the room temperature too low?
Is food with moisture stored close to the cold air spout?
Action
Set the temperature to [Middle] or [Low].
Foods can be frozen if ambient temperature is below
5°C. Move to a place where the temperature is over
5°C.
Place foods with moisture on the shelves close to the
doors.
Problem
Strange sounds from the
refrigerator.
Checkup Point
Is the oor beneath the refrigerator uneven?
Is the space between the refrigerator back and the wall
too close?
Does any object touch the refrigerator?
Action
Move the refrigerator to a level and even oor.
Keep sufcient space.
Remove any object which touches the refrigerator.
Problem
Odour or unpleasant smell from the
inside.
Checkup Point
Is the food stored uncovered or unwrapped?
Are the shelves and pockets stained with food stuff?
Is the food stored too long?
Action
Be sure to cover and wrap the foods.
Clean them regularly. Once smell gets soaked into
those parts, it is not easy to remove.
Do not store foods for too long. A refrigerator is neither
a perfect nor a permanent food keeper.
11
Something strange?
Don’t worry. Here is the
answer.
Case Explanation
Heat
Front and side of refrigerator
feels warm or hot.
Pipes (refrigerant vessel) are placed beneath
the surface to prevent moisture forming on it.
Door
is
sticky
Doors do not open easily.
When you close the door and then open it
again immediately, the door is not easy to
open. Warm air rushes into the inside to cre
ate the pressure difference. In this case wait
for a minute, it willthen open easily.
Strange
Sound
It sounds like water is owing
from the refrigerator.
When the compressor starts to run or stops,
refrigerant which makes the inside cold owing
in the pipes can make such a sound.
Defrosted water can also make such a
sound. (This refrigerator adopts an automatic
defrosting system.)
Cracking or clicking sounds.
Inside parts shrink and/or expand due to
temperature change --- When the inside gets
cold or when the door is open, such sounds
can be made.
Humming or buzzing sounds.
Compressor or fans for cold air circulation can
make such working sound. (If the refrigerator
is not level, the sound can be louder.)
Frost
& Dew
Dew or frost on the wall and/or
food container surface in
the freezer and refrigerator
compartment.
Frost and/or dew can be made in the following
cases;
High temperature and/or high humidity around
the refrigerator.
When doors are open too long.
Foods with much moisture are stored
uncovered or unwrapped.
You can see the same appearance when
cold water is poured in a glass cup and dew
is forming on the surface of it.
Dew on the cabinet surface.
●
If it is highly humid around the refrigerator,
moisture in the air sticks to the surface to form
dew.
